TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates generally to data processing and, more particularly, to customizing output data on an electronic device associated with a user based on biological data of the user.

BACKGROUND

Conventionally, people use digital devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, in many environments with different lighting conditions, e.g., indoors in daylight, indoors in artificial light, outdoors in clear weather, outdoors in cloudy weather, and the like. The digital devices may be configured to automatically adjust display parameters to suit the environmental conditions and the content a user is currently viewing. In other words, a digital device may have ‘an adaptive display’ feature that may enable the digital device to automatically adjust a color range, contrast, and sharpness of a display according to the current usage of the digital device by the user. The digital device may sense the environmental conditions, determine the type of content the user is viewing, determine a particular application the user is using, and analyze all collected data to select parameters for optimizing the viewing experience of the user.

Additionally, according to scientific studies, exposure to blue light of the visible light spectrum was found to have an impact on health of a person by contributing to eye strain. Blue light also was determined to be important in regulating sleep/wake cycles of a body of the person. The display screens of smartphones, computers, laptops, and other digital devices are sources of significant amounts of blue light. Therefore, some conventional digital devices are configured to adapt the color range of a display by activating blue light filtering at night or at time intervals selected by the user to reduce amounts of blue light emitted by the screens.

However, although displays of digital devices can be adjusted based on particular environmental parameters collected by the digital devices and current settings of the digital devices, conventional digital devices do not analyze the current physiological state of the user when adjusting the parameters of the display. Therefore, the adjusted parameters of the digital device may be irrelevant to physiological parameters of the user.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description includes references to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of the detailed description. The drawings show illustrations in accordance with exemplary embodiments. These exemplary embodiments, which are also referred to herein as “examples,” are described in enough detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the present subject matter. The embodiments can be combined, other embodiments can be utilized, or structural, logical, and electrical changes can be made without departing from the scope of what is claimed. The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for customizing output based on user data. The system for customizing output based on user data of the present disclosure may continuously customize an output provided by a digital device associated with a user to elicit a personalized change of biological parameters of the user. Specifically, the system may collect user data, such as biological data of the user or other users, historical data of the user or other users, ambient data, and the like. The biological data may include data related to physical parameters of the user, e.g., a heart rate, body temperature, a blood oxidation level, presence of a substance in a blood, a blood glucose level, and the like. The user data may be collected by sensors affixed to the user, such as a heart-rate monitor; sensor located in proximity to the user, such as a thermal imaging camera and a digital camera; sensors embedded into the digital device of the user; and the like. The system may analyze the collected user data. Based on the analysis, the system may determine dependencies between the user data and the output data.

The system includes an adaptive interface unit, also referred herein to as an adaptive interface, that uses the results of the analysis to continuously customize output data on the digital device of the user, also referred to herein as a user device. The adaptive interface applies machine learning techniques to process the results of analysis of the collected user data and the dependencies between the user data and the output data and select changes to a graphics output and/or an audio output on the user device to cause the change in biological data of the user. Specifically, the adaptive interface may continuously analyze the relationship between the biological data of the user, such as a heart rate, and the graphics and audio the user experiences when using the digital device. The results of continuous analysis of dependencies between the biological data of the user and the output data provided to the user on the user device during perception of output data by the user via the user device may be stored in a database in a form of historic data associated with the user. Additionally, data on dependencies between biological data of a plurality of users and output data on digital devices of the plurality of users may be stored in the database (for example, in a form of historic data associated with the plurality of users).

The system may continuously collect the user data via the sensor without a change in output data for a period of time. Specifically, the system may continuously analyze the collected user data and the determined dependencies and determine whether an amount of the collected user data and the dependencies is sufficient to customize the output data. The determination of whether the amount of the collected user data and the dependencies is sufficient may be performed based on predetermined criteria.

In an example embodiment, the predetermined criteria may include a predetermined amount of collected user data, a predetermined amount of determined dependencies, a predetermined period of time, and other criteria associated with machine learning techniques. The determination of whether the amount of the collected user data and the dependencies is sufficient may be performed using machine learning techniques, such as deep learning techniques.

Thus, the system may continuously collect user data and continuously determine dependencies between the biological data of the user and the output data provided to the user on the user device to collect a predetermined amount of data sets. Based on the predetermined criteria, the system may determine, e.g., by using deep learning techniques, that the collected data sets are sufficient for the adaptive interface to determine how to customize the output data to elicit an automatic and immediate personalized change of a biological response of the user to perception of the customized output data. The determination that the amount of the user data and the dependencies is sufficient to customize the output data may trigger customization of the output data by the adaptive interface.

In particular, the adaptive interface may determine, based on the analysis of the collected user data, that the user has an increased heart rate at the current moment of time, and adapt the output data on the interface of the digital device to elicit reduction of the heart rate of the user. For example, the adaptive interface may determine, based on the historic data, that the heart rate of the user typically changes in response to change of the volume of the audio output and brightness of the video output. Based on such determination, the adaptive interface may reduce the volume of the audio output and decrease the brightness of a display of the user device to cause the reduction of the heart rate of the user.

Thus, the adaptive interface may relate to bio-adaptive technology and may perform the adaptation of an output of the user device based on biological parameters of the user. The adaptation of the output of the user device may be directed to eliciting the change of the biological parameters of the user in case the biological parameters of the user do not correspond to predetermined ranges or values.

FIG. 4 illustrates a further example environment 400 in which systems and methods for customizing an output based on user data may be implemented, according to an example embodiment. The environment 400 includes a client side, shown as a frontend 101, and a backend 103. The frontend 101 can include a sensor 106 and a user device 104. The backend 103 can include a system 200, machine learning techniques 126, and a blockchain 402. The system 200 may include an API 404 to communicate with the user device 104, an adaptive interface 206, and a computing resource 204. The user device 104 may include a smartphone 114, a laptop 116, headphones 118, a retinal implant 120, and an artificial olfaction device 122, as well as a tablet computer, a phablet computer, a desktop computer, an augmented reality device, a virtual reality device, a mixed reality device, an audio output device, and so forth.

The sensor 106 can detect biological data of the user 102. Though two sensors 106 are shown on FIG. 4 , any number of sensors, e.g., one, two, or more, may be attached to the user 102, integrated into the user device 104, or located in proximity to the user 102. In an example embodiment, the sensor 106 may detect a number of breaths per minute of the user 102. In other example embodiments, the sensor 106 may detect any other biological activity of the user 102, such as a heart rate, heart rate variability, electroencephalography, electromyography, mechanomyography, and so forth. In further example embodiment, the sensor 106 may be a device that analyzes electronic signals emitted by the user 102, i.e., frequencies emitted by a body of the user 102, and depicts the analyzed electronic signals as a biometric parameter or activity of the user 102. In an example embodiment, the sensor 106 can be a thermal imaging camera. The adaptive interface 206 may use deep learning algorithms of machine learning techniques 126 to analyze the heart rate and breathing rates of the user 102 based on data collected by the thermal imaging camera.

The sensor 106 may act as a passive sensor or an active sensor. When acting as a passive sensor, the sensor 106 may sense data emitted by the user 102, such as emitted thermal wavelengths. The thermal wavelengths may be analyzed by the adaptive interface 206 using deep learning algorithms of machine learning techniques 126 to determine a breathing pattern or a heart rate of the user 102. When acting as an active sensor, the sensor 106 may send towards the user 102 and receive back ultrasound or radar waves. The waves received upon being reflected from the body of the user 102 can be analyzed by the sensor 106 to detect the physiological state of the user 102.

The API 404 may include a Representational State Transfer (REST) API, 0 API, a set of subroutine definitions, protocols, and tools for receiving data from a server (such as a server 108 shown on FIG. 1 ). The API 404 may provide graphics and audio on the user device 104 based on data received from the adaptive interface 206. The API 404 may be associated with one or more of the following: a web-based system, an operating system, a database system, a computer hardware, and so forth.

The adaptive interface 206 may apply machine learning techniques 126 including artificial neural network, convolutional neural network, Bayesian neural network, or other machine learning techniques to enable the automatic feature learning, the machine learning inference process, and deep learning training of the adaptive interface 206. The adaptive interface 206 may receive data from the sensor 106, the user device 104, the API 404, a computing resource 204, and the network 110. In an example embodiment, the computing resource 204 may be implemented as a component of the user device 104. In this embodiment, the adaptive interface 206 may communicate with and transfer data to the user device 104 for data processing to use the processing units such as a GPU and CPU in the user device 104, and may apply predictive modeling and machine learning processes.

The machine learning techniques 126 applied by the adaptive interface 206 may include supervised machine learning, semi-supervised machine learning, unsupervised machine learning, federated machine learning, collaborative machine learning, and so forth. The supervised machine learning in the adaptive interface 206 is based on a training dataset with labeled data, already installed in the adaptive interface 206 and/or sent from the API 404 and/or network 110. For the supervised machine learning in the adaptive interface 206, the data are labeled and the algorithms learn to predict the output from the input data, namely user data 124.

The semi-supervised learning in the adaptive interface 206 uses a large amount of user data 124, data of the user device 104, and/or API 404, and only some of preinstalled data and/or data from network 110 by using a mixture of supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques.

For unsupervised machine learning in the adaptive interface 122, all data are unlabeled and the algorithms learn to inherit structure from the user data 124, data of the user device 104, and/or API 404.

For the federated machine learning and collaborative machine learning, the adaptive interface 206 collaboratively learns a shared prediction model while keeping all the training data on the user device 104 and sensor 106, decoupling the ability to do machine learning from the need to store the data in the network 110. This goes beyond the use of local models that make predictions on computing devices by bringing model training to the computing device as well. The user device 104 downloads the current model, improves it via adaptive interface 206 by learning from user data 124 related to the interaction of the user 102 with the user device 104 and user data 124 received from the sensor 106, and then summarizes the changes as a small focused update. Only this update to the model is sent to the cloud, using encrypted communication, where it is immediately averaged with other user updates to improve the shared model. All the training data remain on the user device 104 and adaptive interface 206, and no individual updates are stored in the cloud. For the federated and collaborative machine learning setting, the data is distributed across millions of devices in a highly uneven fashion. In addition, these devices have significantly higher-latency and lower-throughput connections and are only intermittently available for training.

The user data from the sensor 106 related to biological parameters of the user 102 and user interaction with the user device 104 can be communicated to the network 110 in all machine learning models, but can also remain as personalized and customized data sets in the adaptive interface 206 and user device 104.

The adaptive interface 206 learns about the specifications for routines, data structures, object classes, variables and programming of APIs, and computing resource 204, network 110, user device 104, and sensor 106. The adaptive interface 206 processes data about the user interaction with an application running on the user device 104, such as graphics and audio from the user device 104, and the user data 124, such as biological data, from the sensor 106. The adaptive interface 206 learns how the biometric data and activity data of the user 102 are changing in real-time when the user 102 interacts with the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 dynamically customizes the output data from API 404 using the machine learning techniques 126, and sends the customized output data back to the API 404. The API 404 sends the adapted and customized output data in real-time to the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 may also collect data associated with the user 102 over time by receiving the biological data of the user 102 and/or data on interaction of the user 102 with the user device 104 and analyzes the collected data using deep learning techniques or other trained learning techniques. The results of the analysis of the adaptive interface 206 and the biological data of the user 102 can be processed and applied to the output data of the API 404 and the usage of the output data of the API 404 in the user device 104 to customize the graphics and audio provided on the user device 104 to the user 102.

The adaptive interface 206 can customize the output data based on the biological data of the user 102 (for example, for faster perception time of the graphics and audio in the user device 104 by the user 102). The adaptive interface 206 can also customize the graphics and audio to the physiological state of the user 102 detected and analyzed based on the biological data of the user 102. For example, a heart rate may be sensed by the sensor 106, and the adaptive interface 206 may customize the graphics and audio on the user device 104 to decrease or increase the heart rate of the user 102 in real-time while the uses interacts with the user device 104.

If the sensor 106 is a breathing sensor, the adaptive interface 206 may employ thermal imaging and machine learning techniques to adapt and customize the graphics and audio to elicit slower or longer inhales and exhales.

The adaptive interface 206 may also send the data of the machine learning to the network 110. The network 110 can send the data to the server 108 to update the data of the application running on the user device 104. The server 108 can update and improve a code associated with the application with data associated with the plurality of individual users. The server 108 can then send the updated output data to the adaptive interface 106 via the network 110.

The adaptive interface 206 can also interact with code storing networks such as blockchain 402 or cloud computing (not shown) as alternate implementations of the server 108 shown on FIG. 1 . The adaptive interface 206 may send the data of the machine learning to the blockchain 402 for further processing.

In addition to the benefits of APIs, such as scalability, heterogeneous interoperability, independent evolution of client and server, and empowered clients, the adaptive interface 206 may also add customization and adaption of the output data in the user device 104 via the user data 124 of the user 102. The customization and adaption of the adaptive interface 206 can enable faster processing speeds for user interaction with the application state (graphics, UX, GUI, and audio) as in the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 can also add stress-reduction and changes of personal biological data via the adapted and customized output data in the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 can also improve the network speed between adaptive interface 206, API 404, and user 102 via customized and adapted information processing. The adaptive interface 206 may use different types of machine learning techniques to achieve smarter models, lower latency, and less power consumption to potentially ensure privacy when data of user 102 remain on the user device 104 and in adaptive interface 206. This approach has another immediate benefit: in addition to providing an update to the shared model to the network 110 and customized output data, the improved and updated output data on the user device 104 can also be used immediately in real-time to provide user experience personalized based on the way the user 102 uses the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 can also replace the API 404 with the API generated based on the output data. The adaptive interface 206 can feature all the programming tasks and steps employed in API and replace the API by connecting sensors, user devices, and networks for customized and improved applications, performances, and experiences.

FIG. 5 illustrates an environment 500 within which systems and methods for customizing output based on user data can be implemented, in accordance with some embodiments. The system 200 may be in communication with the blockchain 402 and provide the user data 124 to the blockchain 402. The blockchain 402 may be in communication with a developer community 502 and may provide results of analysis of the user data 124 to the developer community 502. The developer community 502 may use the analysis of the user data 124 to develop further machine learning models for processing the user data 124 by the blockchain 402.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram 600 that illustrates operations performed by components of a machine learning system for customizing output based on user data, according to an example embodiment. The user device 104 may display graphics and play audio to a user 102. The user device 104 may include a user interface 602, a processing unit 604, an NPU 606, and a displaying unit 608. An adaptive interface 206 of the machine learning system 200 for customizing output based on user data may be located remotely with respect to the user device 104 (e.g., in a computing cloud). In an example embodiment, the NPU 606 may be not the component of the user device 104, but may be located remotely with respect to the user device 104 (e.g., in the computing cloud).

The user 102 may perceive the output in a form of visual data and/or audio data provided by the user device 104 via the user interface 602, UX, CGI, common gateway interface, a work environment (e.g., a social media platform), and other forms of graphics and potential audio files or audio-perceived frequencies. In an example embodiment, a screen of the user device 104 may display visually-perceived stimuli, for instance, when the user 104 device uses a retinal implant technology. The user device 104 can be configured in a form of a computing and processing unit and may be further configured to provide visual stimuli and play audio-perceived stimuli.

The user 102 may interact with the user device 104. The interaction can be in any manner, for example, by perceiving, visually or audibly, an application running on the user device 104, by changing the visuals or audio on the user device 104, for example, by haptically interacting with the user device 104. The user 102 can interact with the user device 104 by pressing buttons displayed on the user interface 602 of the user device 104 with fingers. In a further example embodiment, pupil movements of the user 102 or other forms of interaction of the user 102 may be tracked.

A sensor 106 may be affixed to the user 102 or may be located in proximity to the user 102 and may sense data related to physical parameters of the user 102 and convert the data into an electrical signal. The sensed data may be considered to be an input from the user 102. The input may include light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure, or any other physical parameters of the body of the user 102 that can be sensed by the sensor 106. The sensor 106 that detects changes of the physical parameters of the user 102 may be a biosensor configured to detect the presence or concentration of a biological analyte, such as a biomolecule, a biological structure, or a microorganism in/at the body of the user 102. The sensor 106 in a form of the biosensor may include three parts: a component that recognizes the analyte and produces a signal, a signal transducer, and a reader device. The sensor 106 may provide an output in a form of a signal that may be transmitted electronically to the adaptive interface 206 for reading and further processing.

The sensor 106 may further be a camera configured to detect changes of physical parameters of the user 102, such as the color of the skin of the user 102. The images can be analyzed using machine learning algorithms, e.g., using the NPU 606 or the adaptive interface 206, to evaluate the changes of biological parameters of the user 102 (for example, a heart rate of the user 102). Some types of the sensor 106 may require the use of learning algorithms and machine learning techniques in the adaptive interface 206, the NPU 606, and/or processing unit 604. The sensor 106 may also be configured on a form of a thermal imaging camera to detect a stress level, a breathing rate, a heart rate, a blood oxygen level, and other biological parameters of the user 102. The adaptive interface 206 may use machine learning algorithms and neural networks to analyze thermal imagery and detect the stress level, the breathing rate, the heart rate, the blood oxygen level, and other parameters of the user 102.

The user device 104 may communicate with the sensor 106 to obtain the time of interaction of the user 102 with the user device 104. As mentioned above, some types of sensor 106 may use the processing unit 604 in the user device 104 for applying the machine learning techniques and performing the analysis. The biological parameters, the time of the detection of biological parameters of the user by the sensor 106, and data related to the user interaction with the user device 104 may be sent by the sensor 106 and the user device 104 to the adaptive interface 206.

The adaptive interface 206 may customize the data displayed by the user interface 602 based on data received from the sensor 106 and/or the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 may use the processing units of the user device 104, such as a CPU, a GPU, and/or the NPU 606 of the user device 104. The adaptive interface 206 may use different types of machine learning techniques, such as supervised machine learning, semi-supervised machine learning, unsupervised machine learning, federated and/or collaborative machine learning, to customize the output data of the user device 104, such as graphics and audio, for the user 102 based on the biological data received from the sensor 106 and data on the user interaction from the user device 104.

The adaptive interface 206 may send the adapted and customized output data to the user interface 602. The user interface 602 may display the adapted and customized data on a screen of the user device 104.

The user device 104 may use the displaying unit 608 to display the output data in a customized format provided by the adaptive interface 206. The cycle of customizing of the output data of the user device 104 repeats in real-time so the continuously collected user data and data on user interaction with the user device 104 are used to update the graphics and audio of the user device by the adaptive interface 206. The analysis of the user data by using machine learning of the adaptive interface 206 to adapt the output data in order to elicit the change of the biological parameters of the user 102 may result in a faster processing of the user data and customized user experience for the user 102 using the user device 140.

In an example embodiment, the user data may be captured during a loading time of the application. In this case, the predetermined criteria for determining that the amount of the collected user data and determined dependencies is sufficient to customize the output data can be an expiration of the loading time of the application. Conventionally, when the user selects one of applications on the user device and launches the selected application, the loading of the application starts and loading wheels, graphs, and/or advertisements are usually shown on a screen of the user device when the application loads. In the present disclosure, the loading time of the application can be used to capture user data via a sensor, for example, via a camera of the user device. To facilitate the collection of the user data, output data, such as visual and/or audio data, can be provided to the user via the user device during the loading time of the application. In some embodiments, several types of visual and/or audio data may be presented to the user, such as various pictures, sounds, animated media, and so forth, and the user data that the user has when viewing and/or listening to each type of visual and/or audio can be collected. These various types of visual and/or audio data can be used to analyze how the user data change in response to perceiving various types of visual and/or audio data by the user. The user data collected during the loading time can be used to determine dependencies between the user data and the output data perceived by the user. When the application is loaded, i.e., upon the expiration of the loading time, the adaptive interface can continuously customize the output data related to the application, such as a video and audio output, based on the collected user data and determined dependencies.

As improvements in per-transistor speed and energy efficiency diminish, radical departures from conventional approaches are needed to continue improvements in the performance and energy efficiency of general-purpose processors. One such departure is approximate computing, where an error in computation is acceptable and the traditional robust digital abstraction of near-perfect accuracy is relaxed. Conventional techniques in energy-efficient computing navigate a design space defined by the two dimensions—performance and energy—and traditionally trade one for the other. General-purpose approximate computing explores a third dimension—error- and trades the accuracy of computation for gains in both energy and performance. Techniques to harvest large savings from small errors have proven elusive. The present disclosure describes an approach that uses machine learning-based transformations to accelerate approximation-tolerant programs. The core idea is to train a learning model how an approximable region of a code—a code that can produce imprecise but acceptable results—behaves and replace the original code region with an efficient computation of the learned model. Neural networks are used to learn code behavior and approximate the code behavior. The Parrot algorithmic transformation may be used, which leverages a simple programmer annotation (“approximable”) to transform a code region from a von Neumann model to a neural model. After the learning phase, the compiler replaces the original code with an invocation of a low-power accelerator called an NPU. The NPU is tightly coupled to the processor to permit profitable acceleration even when small regions of code are transformed. Offloading approximable code regions to the NPU is faster and more energy efficient than executing the original code. For a set of diverse applications, NPU acceleration provides whole-application speed increase up to 2.3 times and energy savings of up to 3 times on average with an average quality loss of 9.6% at most. The NPU forms a new class of accelerators and shows that significant gains in both performance and efficiency are achievable when the traditional abstraction of near-perfect accuracy is relaxed in general-purpose computing. It is widely understood that energy efficiency now fundamentally limits microprocessor performance gains.

FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram 700 that illustrates operations performed by an adaptive interface to customize output on a user device based on user data, according to an example embodiment. The user 102 may interact with a user device 104 by reviewing graphics 702 shown on a user interface 716 of the user device 104 and listening to audio 704 produced by the user device 104. A sensor 106 may continuously sense user data 124 during the interaction of the user 102 with the user device 104.

The user device 104 may provide data related to output data currently shown to the user on the user interface 716 to the adaptive interface 206. Furthermore, the sensor 106 may provide the sensed user data 124 to the user device 104, and the user device 104 may analyze the sensed user data 124 and provide the results of the analysis to the adaptive interface 206.

The adaptive interface 206 may process the data related to output data currently shown to the user on the user interface 716 and the analyzed user data 124 using machine learning techniques 126. Based on the processing, the adaptive interface 206 may continuously customize output data of the user device 104 and provide customized output data 706 to the API 404 of the user device 104. Upon receipt of the customized output data 706, the API 404 may provide the customized output data 706 to the user 102 on a display of the user device 104.

The customized output data 706 may include one or more of the following: an adapted microservice 708, adapted image files 710 (e.g., in JPEG, JPG, GIF, PNG, and other formats), adapted audio files 712 (e.g., in WAV, MP3, WMA, and other formats), adapted files 714 (e.g., in HTM, HTML, JSP, AXPX, PHPH, XML, CSHTML, JS, and other formats), and so forth.

FIG. 8 is a flow chart 800 illustrating customizing output of a user device based on user data, in accordance with some example embodiments. At step 802, a user device may receive programming data from an API associated with the user device. The user device may provide the received programming data to the user at step 804 by displaying graphics on a display of the user device and playing audio using a speaker of the user device. The user may interact with the user device, e.g., by viewing the graphics displayed on the user device and listening to the audio played the user device, as shown by step 806. User data, such as biological data of the user, may be continuously sensed by a sensor as shown by step 808. Additionally, the user device may communicate with the sensor at step 810 to obtain the time of the user interaction with the user device. The time of interaction may be used for determining a dependency of the user data on the interaction of the user with the user device at each moment of time.

At step 812, the user device and the sensor may send user data and data on user interaction to an adaptive interface. The adaptive interface may customize output data of the API of the user device by using machine learning techniques at step 814. Specifically, the adaptive interface may analyze the user data and select changes to be done to the output data of the API to cause changing of the user data. For example, the adaptive interface may analyze blood pressure of the user, determine that the user pressure exceeds a predetermined value, review historical data related to dependency of the user pressure on visual and audio data provided to the user on the user device, and customize the visual and audio data to elicit decreasing of the blood pressure of the user.

The adaptive interface may send the customized output data to the API of the user device at step 816. Additionally, the adaptive interface may store the customized output data to a database as historical data. The historical data may be used in further customization of the output data. At step 818, the API may provide the customized output data to the user device. The user device may display the customized output data using a displaying unit at step 820.

FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram 900 showing customization of output data on a user device based on biological data of a user, according to an example embodiment. The breath of a user 102 may be continuously monitored by a biosensor 902, such as a breath sensor. User data collected by the biosensor 902 may be provided to a user device 104 as an input 904 from the biosensor 902. The user device 104 may provide the input 904 from the biosensor 902 to a computing resource. The computing resource may analyze the input 904 from the biosensor 902. In an example embodiment, the analysis may include determining breath depth 906 and breath frequency 908. The computing resource may provide the results of the analysis to an adaptive interface. Additionally, the user device 104 may also provide, to an adaptive interface, data related to output 910 viewed by the user 102 at the time the biosensor 902 collected the user data. The output 910 provided to the user 102 on the user device 104 may include graphics 912 shown to the user 102 using the user device 104, such as background, fonts, GUI elements, CGI, UX, and the like.

The adaptive interface may process the results of the analysis, the output 910 viewed by the user 102, and historical data previously collected for the user 102 and/or a plurality of users on dependency of biological data of the user 102 and/or the plurality of users on the output 910 viewed on the user device 104. The adaptive interface may perform the processing 922 using machine learning techniques. Based on the processing, the adaptive interface may customize the output 910 to provoke changing of the user data (e.g., to provoke deeper inhales of the user 102). The adaptive interface may provide customized output 914 to the user device 104. The customized output 914 provided to the user 102 on the user device 104 may include customized graphics 916 shown to the user 102 using the user device 104, such as customized background, fonts, GUI elements, CGI, UX, and the like.

The biosensor 902 may continue monitoring the user data and provide the data collected based on the monitoring to the computing resource. The computing resource may analyze the input 904 from the biosensor 902. In an example embodiment, the analysis may include determining breath depth 918 and breath frequency 920 that the user has after reviewing the customized output 914.

The user data continuously collected by the biosensor 902 and the customized output 914 provided to the user 102 may be continuously analyzed by the adaptive interface. The adaptive interface may continue applying the machine learning techniques for the analysis 924. Based on the analysis 924 and machine learning processing 922 in real-time, the elements of graphics 928 provided to the user 102 on a user interface of the user device 104 may be continuously modified, as shown by block 926, to elicit improved breathing of the user 102. The breath depth 930 and breath frequency 932 of the user 102 may be continuously analyzed by the adaptive interface for further modification of the output of the user device 102.

FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram 1000 illustrating processing data from a sensor using machine learning techniques, according to an example embodiment. The sensor, such as a breath sensor, may provide detected data as an input to an adaptive interface. The adaptive interface may process the input from the sensor in a machine learning environment using machine learning algorithms. The adaptive interface may continuously learn about user response to providing customized visual and audio output data to the user using the user device. The user response may include changing of the biological parameters of the user invoked by reviewing the customized visual and audio output data by the user. The biological parameters may include an average breath force 1004 sensed by the sensor and an average breath force 1006 and 1008 further sensed by the sensor upon providing the customized visual and audio output data to the user.

FIG. 11 is a flow chart 1100 illustrating continuous customization of output based on user data, according to an example embodiment. Data related to biological parameters of the user and interaction of the user with a user device may be continuously captured by a sensor and the user device in a form of user biodata and interaction 1102. The captured biological data, also referred to as biodata, and data on interaction 1102 may be provided to an adaptive interface 206 as input 1104. At step 1106, the adaptive interface 206 may detect the user biodata and interaction 1102 and send the data to be displayed by a user device as output 1108. A displaying unit of the user device may process the data received from the adaptive interface 206 and provide the output on the user device, as shown by block 1110. The output may be provided by displaying visual data, playing audio data, providing haptic feedback, and so forth.

The sensor and the user device may continuously provide further user biodata and data on interaction, as shown by blocks 1112, 1114, 1116, and 1118. The adaptive interface 206 may apply the machine learning techniques to customize the output of the user device and send the customized output to the user device, as shown by blocks 1120, 1122, 1124, and 1126. The displaying unit of the user device may process the customized data received from the adaptive interface 206 and provide the updated data on the user device, as shown by blocks 1128, 1130, 1132, 1134, and 1136.

FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram 1200 showing operations performed by an adaptive interface to continuously customize output data using machine learning techniques, according to an example embodiment. The adaptive interface may continuously receive input 1202 from a user device. The input 1202 may include user data sensed by a sensor and time of providing data, e.g., graphics, on a display of the user device to the user. At block 1204, based on the input 1202, the adaptive interface may determine which user data the user had at a time of providing the data on the display. For example, the adaptive interface may determine the blood pressure the user had when the user read information on a green font of a webpage displayed on the user device. The adaptive interface may apply machine learning techniques and neural networks 1206 to determine whether the user data need to be changed according to predetermined criteria (e.g., whether the blood pressure of the user is above a predetermined value at the current moment of time). The adaptive interface may further apply machine learning techniques and neural networks 1206 to determine specific changes 1208 to be applied to the output data of the user device to cause changing of the user data (e.g., to cause decreasing of the blood pressure of the user). The adaptive interface may send the changed data to be displayed to the user device. A displaying unit of the user device may process and display the changed data as the output 1210 of the user device.

The adaptive interface may continue receiving input 1202 from the user device. Specifically, the adaptive interface may receive user data sensed by the sensor and time of providing changed data on the display of the user device to the user. Based on the input 1202, the adaptive interface may determine which user data the user had at a time of providing the changed data on the display, as shown by block 1212. The adaptive interface may determine whether the user data still needs to be changed (e.g., if the blood pressure of the user is still above the predetermined value). If the user data still needs to be changed, the adaptive interface may determine, at block 1214, which adjustments of data to be displayed to the user need to be made. The adaptive interface may send the adjusted data to be displayed to the user device. The displaying unit of the user device may process and display the adjusted data as the output 1210 of the user device.

Upon providing the adjusted data, the adaptive interface may continue receiving input 1202 from the user device. Specifically, the adaptive interface may receive user data sensed by the sensor and time of providing the adjusted data on the display of the user device to the user. Based on the input 1202, the adaptive interface may determine which user data the user had at a time of providing the adjusted data on the display, as shown by block 1216. At block 1218, the adaptive interface may determine whether the adjustment of data to be displayed to the user led to a personalized change (i.e. to the change of biological parameters of the user). The adaptive interface may perform continuous adjustment of data to be displayed to the user, as shown by block 1220. The adaptive interface may continuously provide the adjusted data as the output 1210 to the user device.

FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram 1300 showing operations performed by an adaptive interface to continuously customize output data using machine learning techniques, according to an example embodiment. The adaptive interface may continuously receive input 1302 from a user device. The input 1302 may include user data sensed by a sensor and time of providing data, e.g., output data in a form of graphics, on a display of the user device to the user. Based on the input 1302, the adaptive interface may determine which user data the user had at a time of providing the data on the display at block 1304. The adaptive interface may apply machine learning techniques and neural networks 1306 to determine whether the user data needs to be changed according to predetermined criteria. The adaptive interface may further apply machine learning techniques and neural networks 1306 to determine specific changes 1308 to be applied to the output data, e.g., graphics, audio, or olfactory data, of the user device to cause changing of the user data. The adaptive interface may send the changed data to be displayed in a frontend, i.e., on a display of the user device. A displaying unit of the user device may process and display the changed data as the output 1310 of the user device.

The adaptive interface may receive further input 1312 from the user device. The input 1312 may include changed user data sensed by the sensor and time of providing changed data on the display of the user device to the user. Based on the input 1312, the adaptive interface may determine whether the change of the output data led to personalized or desired change of the user data, as shown by block 1314. Specifically, the adaptive interface may determine in which way the user data changed in response to providing the changed output data to the user. The adaptive interface may further apply machine learning techniques and neural networks 1316 to determine adjustments 1318 to be applied to the changed output data of the user device to cause further changing of the user data.

FIG. 19 is a schematic diagram 1900 showing output data of a user device customized by a machine learning system for customizing output based on user data, according to an example embodiment. Specifically, FIG. 19 illustrates customizing olfactory data on an artificial olfaction device 120 based on user data 124 of a user 102 sensed by a sensor 106. The output data, such as units 1902 of a perceptual axis 1904 of odorant pleasantness that ranges from very pleasant (e.g., rose as shown by element 1906) to very unpleasant (e.g., skunk as shown by element 1908), may be provided to the user 102 by the artificial olfaction device 120.

The adaptive interface 206 may continuously customize the olfactory data and provide the further customized units 1914 of the perceptual axis 1904 to the artificial olfaction device 120. The artificial olfaction device 120 may set the olfactory data according to the customized units 1914.

FIG. 20 is a schematic diagram 2000 showing customizing output of a user device based on user data captured by a digital camera of the user device, according to an example embodiment. The user device may include a smartphone. The digital camera shown as camera 2002 may be disposed at a distance 2004 from the user 102. The distance 2004 at which the camera 2002 may be configured to capture user data may be up to several meters or any other distance depending on parameters of the camera 2002 and environmental conditions.

In an example embodiment, the camera 2002 may be selected from a charge-coupled device, a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor image sensor, or any other type of an image sensor. The camera 2002 of the user device may be used as a non-contact and non-invasive device to measure user data. The user data may include a respiratory rate, pulse rate, blood volume pulse, and so forth. The camera 2002 may be used to capture an image the user 102. The user data captured by the camera 2002 may be processed by the adaptive interface 206 of the system 200. The processing may be performed using CPU, GPU, and/or NPU. The user data captured by the camera 2002 may be the input for the adaptive interface 206 and may be processed together with the data concerning the time of the visuals displayed to the user and audio provided to the user at the time of capture of the user data, and together with the data concerning the time of the recording of the user data.

In an example embodiment, the respiratory rate, the heart rate, and the blood volume pulse may be sensed simultaneously using the camera 2002. Specifically, the camera 2002 may capture an image 2006 of the user. Upon capturing, a part of a skin 2008 of the user 202 may be detected on the image 2006. Upon detecting the image of the skin, a region of interest 2010 may be selected as shown by step 2012. After the selection of the region of interest 2012, the changes in the average image brightness of the region of interest 2012 for a short time can be measured. The selection of the region of interest 2012 of the face may be used to obtain blood circulation features and obtain the raw blood volume pulse signal. The selection of a region of interest may influence the following heart rate detection steps. First, the selection of a region of interest may affect the tracking directly since a commonly applied tracking method uses a first frame of the captured region of interest. Second, the selected regions of interest are regarded as the source of cardiac information. The pixel values inside the region of interest can be used for intensity-based methods, while feature point locations inside the region of interest can be used for motion-based methods.

The time-lapse image of a part of the skin of the user 102 may be consecutively captured, and the changes in the average brightness of the region of interest 2010 can be measured for a period of time, for example, for 30 seconds. The brightness data can be processed by a series of operations of interpolation using a first-order derivative, a low pass filter of 2 Hz, and a sixth-order auto-regressive spectral analysis.

Remote photoplethysmography may be used for contactless monitoring of the blood volume pulse using the camera. Blood absorbs light more than the surrounding tissues and variations in blood volume affect light transmission and reflectance as schematically shown by an arrow 2034. This leads to the subtle color changes in human skin, which are invisible to human eyes but can be recorded by the camera. Various optical models can be applied to extract the intensity of color changes caused by pulse.

It is possible to capture heart rate signals at a frame rate of eight frames per second (fps), under the hypothesis that the human heartbeat frequency lies between 0.4 and 4 Hz. A frame rate between 15 and 30 fps is sufficient for heart rate detection. The estimation of the heart rate is performed by directly applying noise reduction algorithms and optical modeling methods. Alternatively, the usage of manifold learning methods mapping multidimensional face video data into one-dimensional space can be used to reveal the heart rate signal. Hemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin both have the ability of absorption in the green color range and low in the red color range. However, all three color channels (red, green, and blue) contain photoplethysmogram (PPG) information. Red green blue (RGB) color filter 2036 can be used to extract red frames 2014, green frames 2016, and blue frames 2018 from the captured image of interest 2010. Red signal 2020, green signal 2022, and blue signal 2024 can be determined based on the captured red frames 2014, green frames 2016, and blue frames 2018.

FIG. 21 is a schematic diagram 2100 showing an analysis of captured user data by an adaptive interface, according to an example embodiment. Intensity-based methods 2106, 2108, 2110 can be used to process PPG signals captured by the camera. Normalized color intensity (RGB colors) can be analyzed. Using auto-regressive spectral analysis, two clear peaks can be detected at approximately 0.3 and 1.2 Hz. The peaks correspond to the respiratory rate and the heart rate. The peak 2102 with the frequency of 0.3 Hz corresponds to the respiratory rate, and the peak 2104 with the frequency of 1.2 Hz corresponds to the heart rate. The green channel provides the strongest signal-to-noise ratio. Consequently, the green channel can be used for extracting the heart rate.

Referring back to FIG. 20 , upon detecting the red signal 2020, green signal 2022, and blue signal 2024, an average RGB signal can be determined at step 2026. The signal de-trending of the average RGB signal can be performed at step 2028. The processed signal can be normalized at step 2030. Filtering of the normalized signal may be performed at step 2030.

Referring again to FIG. 21 , the analysis of captured user data can further include capturing brightness level, contrast level, saturation level, and vibrance level of data shown to the user on the user device. The user perceives the visuals shown on the user device with a continuously changing degree of brightness level, contrast level, saturation level, and vibrance level. The adaptive interface may receive an input in a form of the time of the displaying of the degree or level of brightness, contrast, saturation and vibrance, and the time of the heart rate and respiratory rate as analyzed from user data detected by the camera. As shown in FIG. 21 , the inputs are levels of brightness 2112, contrast 2114, saturation 2116, and vibrance 2118 that may be mapped to the time, as well as may be mapped to the time and analysis 2120, 2122, 2124 of values of heart rate and respiratory rate.

The adaptive interface can perform a continuous processing 2126 using a neural processing unit for predictive modeling of the datasets captured by the sensor (the camera) and the visual adjustments. In the adaptive interface, the input of datasets may be processed using deep learning techniques. The deep learning technique may apply specific and differing machine learning techniques to the datasets to learn how to process the datasets and adapt the visual adjustments on the user device to support slower heart rate and respiratory rate. Machine learning techniques can be supervised, semi-supervised, and unsupervised. The adaptive interface may analyze correlations between visual adjustments and heart rate and respiratory rates, process the datasets, and create predictive models to adapt the visual adjustments to the desired outcome of slower heart rate and slower respiratory rate personalized to the user in real-time and continuously. For the inputs, the adaptive interface may identify features of the visual adjustments that are predictive of the outcomes to predict heart rate and respiratory rate. The adaptive interface may use classification, regression, clustering, convolutional neural networks, and other machine learning techniques based on which the datasets are analyzed and the customized output data are predicted for the fastest lowering and slowing of the heart rate and respiratory rate of the user. The probability and predictive modeling performed by the adaptive interface may be adaptive to learn how to adapt the visual adjustments of the user device to the user with varying heart rate and respiratory rate. As the adaptive interface identifies patterns in the datasets of the visual adjustments and heart rate and respiratory rate, the adaptive interface may learn from the observations. When exposed to more observations, the predictive performance of the adaptive interface may be improved.

In an example embodiment, the analysis performed by the adaptive interface may include step 2126, at which signal extraction may be performed. The signal extraction may include detection, definition, and tracking of a region of interest, raw signal extraction to obtain raw signal. The visual adjustments may be selected based on the signal extraction. The visual adjustments may include adjustments of the vibrance level, saturation level, contrast level, brightness level. Based on the visual adjustments, the display spectrum may be determined and applied to a display of the user device.

The analysis may further include step 2128, at which signal estimation may be performed by applying filtering, dimensionality, and reduction to the signal to obtain an RGB signal. Furthermore, the heart rate and respiratory rate may be estimated using frequency analysis and peak detection.

The analysis may further include step 2130, at which adaptive modeling may be performed. The adaptive modeling may include deep learning techniques, machine learning techniques for adaptation of visuals based on the heart rate and respiratory rate, model learning using regression, clustering, feature selection, and convolutional neural networks.

The analysis may further include step 2132, at which adaptive implementation may be performed. Specifically, output data for the user device may be provided, model testing may be performed, levels of vibrance, saturation, contrast, and brightness may be adapted to the heart rate and respiratory rate in real-time and continuously. Machine learning and other techniques may be continuously applied.

FIG. 22 is a schematic diagram 2200 showing output data continuously adapted by an adaptive interface, according to an example embodiment. The adaptive interface 206 may send the analyzed, adapted and customized output data to a CPU or GPU for processing of the personalized datasets. The user 102 may be presented with user interfaces 2202, 2204, 2206, 2208, 2210, which may be continuously personalized in real-time. The user interfaces 2202, 2204, 2206, 2208, 2210 may have varying brightness, contrast, saturation, and vibrance levels. The user device 104 may also provide to the adaptive interface data relating to a processing speed. Therefore, the adaptive interface may learn how to improve the data processing for faster processing so that the visual adjustments for slower heart rate and respiratory rate can be processed faster and more efficiently.

The adaptive interface may receive updates from a network and database about methods to analyze and process the datasets. The updates may be based on scientific studies and tests as to what visuals are supportive to slower the heart rate and the respiratory rate. The updates may also include data on how the heart rate and the respiratory rate can be analyzed and what a “slower” heart rate and respiratory rate means. The focus of the adaptive interface may be to provide a slower, calmer, and deeper heart rate and respiratory rate. The definition of a slower, calmer, and deeper heart rate and respiratory rate can change over time based on scientific and other data, and the adaptive interface may be updated from the network to integrate these changes and adapt the processing of the input data to the updates. Each adaptive interface used by each of a plurality of users may provide data relating to datasets and processing to a database, so the machine learning techniques may use data from a plurality of adaptive interfaces associated with the plurality of users to improve the visual adjustments to the heart rate and respiratory rate of the user. The updates relating to data learned from the plurality of adaptive interfaces and users may be provided to each adaptive interface.

The adaptive interface may be directed to analyzing and evaluating which datasets of visual adjustments, i.e. output data, personalize the visuals shown to the user on the user device to personalize a desired change of heart rate and respiratory rate. The heart rate or respiratory rate can be customized to be lower than the average and/or first detected heart rate and respiratory rate. The adaptive interface may continuously analyze the user data and interaction of the user with the user device and visuals, and may continuously learn to customize the visuals with the visual adjustments to further change the heart rate and respiratory rate of the user.

FIG. 23 is a flow chart 2300 showing a method for customizing output based on user data, according to an example embodiment. The adaptive interface may continuously process user data, as shown by operation 2302. At operation 2304, the adaptive interface may determine whether the heart rate and the respiratory rate of the user slow down. If the heart rate and the respiratory rate do not slow down, the method may continue with operation 2306, at which the adaptive interface may change visuals, i.e., the output data on the user device, using adjustments of brightness level, contrast level, saturation level, and vibrance level of data shown to the user on the user device.

At operation 2308, data related to the changed visuals may be processed and provided to the user on the user device. At operation 2310, the adaptive interface may again determine whether the heart rate and the respiratory rate of the user slow down. If the heart rate and the respiratory rate slow down, the adaptive interface may perform operation 2312, at which data related to the visuals with adjustments of brightness level, contrast level, saturation level, and vibrance level may be processed. At operation 2314, the adaptive interface may continue processing of the user data.

If it is determined at operation 2310 that the heart rate and the respiratory rate do not slow down, the adaptive interface may employ other machine learning techniques at operation 2316 to perform further adaptation of the visuals.

Returning to operation 2304, if it is determined that the heart rate and the respiratory rate slow down, the adaptive interface may determine, at operation 2316, whether tendencies of adjustment of visuals support slower heart rate and respiratory rate. If the tendencies of adjustment of visuals support slower heart rate and respiratory rate, the adaptive interface may continue with operation 2308. If tendencies of adjustment of visuals do not support slower heart rate and respiratory rate, the adaptive interface may perform operation 2318, at which the adaptive interface may search for adjustments of visuals that may support slower heart rate and slower respiratory rate. Upon selecting adjustments of visuals, the adaptive interface may continue with operation 2312.
